What can I do to grow taller?!
Question: What can I do to grow taller.?
I'm a male that just turned 18. My dad is about 5'5 and my mom is 5'4. I'm 5'10. My mom and dad seem to be the shortest people in my extended family. One uncle from my mom's side is 6 ft and the other 5'9. My dad's brother is 5'9 as well. I had my growth spurt when i was about 14-15 and started going through puberty early. I have been very athletic all my life and still play many sports. My favorite sport is rowing and unfortunately my height keeps me from becoming as good on the water as all the other guys on the team who are over 6 ft. what can i do about my height.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
It's genetics.....you may have already reached your full adult height but could go taller. I think it's too late for the growth hormone shots and I'm not sure you would have qualified being as tall as you are. Some things we can nothing about so deal with it. As parents we are average height (5'8" and 5'10")....our two children are 4"11 and 6"3 as adults.Health Question & Answer
Well, there's not really much you can do about your height, since it really depends on your parents, but if you sleep more you might grow a little taller. The reason is because you're flat on your bed and gravity is pushing down on your, flattening you out like a pancake, if that makes sense. So, maybe if you sleep more, you'll get taller!Health Question & Answer
Males usually stop growing at 18 and any growth after 18 is likely to be very little. Perhaps you might grow another inch.Health Question & Answer
